I saw the Winter Village Cottage set when it was revealed at BrickFair's first day, and I got a chance to look at it closer the day after.I probably won't be taking advantage of this (though the set was nice), but I find it very intriguing that the VIP program continues to expand. Getting sets early is an obvious perk, but yet an ingenious one. I wonder if they'll do this for more exclusive sets, or if this will be a one-set only deal?
